The Karpman Drama Triangle, the Choy Winner's Triangle, and the O.K. Corral as They Pertain to Academic Achievement
J. R. Teeter
Learning Assistance Review, v28 n1 p88-112 2023
Transactional Analysis has long been used in therapy settings and by coaching institutions to improve personal outcomes. It is best described as a practical application of tools to guide interpersonal interactions. Born out of Transactional Analysis is the Drama Triangle created by Stephen Karpman (1968), OK Corral created by Frank H. Ernst Jr. (1971), and the Winner's Triangle by Acey Choy (1990). These simple concepts have the potential to transform academic institutions and prevent dysfunctional relationships between faculty, staff, and/or students, which stem from the heightened academic environment and ineffective coping skills.
